Ending the Rangers to Rochester Rumors

Every year in the American Hockey League when affiliation agreements come to an end the talk is that the New York Rangers will be the new affiliate of whatever team. The agreement between the Amerks and Panthers expires at the end of the 10-11 season with talks ending November 1st (until at least the end of the season).

With the pending change the immediate talk was that the Amerks would affiliate with the Rangers and even before this current season starts we can say that it is NOT happening.
